Lisbon, Portugal 2012

After cruising the Tagus River, we arrived in Lisbon for a great day touring the many wonders of ancient Portugal. The statue of Christ the Redeemer high atop a pedestal overlooking the city was a fabulous setting. Many old monasteries and buildings and churches and fountains make it great. The Belem Tower,
a toll fort on the river is unique. Finally, the “Discoveries” Monument on the River gave us a
perspective of how Portugal was a major part of Exploration of the “New World.”
